Russian central banks purchased 27 tonnes gold in July 2018. Why do Central banks buy Gold ??
They buy gold since many people treat it as a safe haven for wealth because of its long history. With its long history, gold has proven itself to be a good asset to use in storing wealth value because it is not volatile.
what you think which has highest ROI in short term other than crypto invesments.
Starting up your own business IMO will bring you the highest ROI if we are talking about short-term but you will need to exert an effort to make your business grow.
Right mate,for practical people they will choose to buy and hold Gold than fiats in which expires and needed to be replaced by the central banks,or than cryptocurrency that only assures virtually but not physically so countries and governments are gathering gold for their people's interests
In my humble opinion, I would certainly believe that cryptocurrency like btc is the investment that would answer to yield good return of investment. However, the only thing you need to do is you must have patience when you are involved in cryptocurrency investment as this is very volatile and unpredictable. The good thing in btc investment is when it will make a huge pump, definitely you will really end up earning sufficient profit.
I tend to disagree mate,because theres no assurance in cryptocurrency,even though i trust this community still we must be thinking of what well happen for tomorrow
